re: The hype for Saturday doesn’t match 2011

I think it had more to do with the 2011 teams were so dominant that it was clear nobody else in college football was on the same level that season. And both had all-time great defenses....defense get people hyped up.

Probably due to tMulligan and the shattering of the illusion that every game matters.
If Bama loses, they get a pass.
Lessens the urgency.

Now, a loss does not end anybody’s season. I think a 1 loss Bama or LSU gets into the CFP, barring a UGa upset in Atlanta. It almost feels like some shine has been taken off of a #1 v #2 matchup.
Why do people keep saying this game doesn’t mean anything? I for one would not want to put my teams date in the hands of 13 people. Winning this game is huge for getting into the playoff without any doubt. I don’t care if we play Bama once we get there.
Right now the goal is to make the SEC Championship and then the playoffs. When that happens then I’ll worry about LSU winning a National Championship.

They typically use the CFP rankings once they're out, but CBS may stick with the AP for the sake of hype.

LSU and Alabama were unbelievable that year 2011 was a way bigger matchup
Agree. It's funny that just a few years later the 9-6 game will end up being a 42-35 type game.

Nope, not even close. Plenty of reasons too:
-We’ve seen this “premier” matchup plenty of times.
-LSU’s inability to win, and keep it competitive
-Tua’s injury
-Alabama getting the doors blasted off by Clemson causes them to lose that mystique
-No one can say either team is definitively better than Clemson or Ohio State
